What IS is trying to be? it certainly isn't trying to be a ram any longer. NO crosshairs, no "big rig" styling, all soft rounded edges. It looks like the lovechild of a head-on collision between a 2015 accord and a Ridgeline.

So with what you said, lets look at dodge ram 1500 history and compare to chevy exact year for year...... just for fun 85 vs 85, 95 vs 95.....

05 vs 05, the updated 07 ram, 14 vs 14..... ok well, did ram 1500 ever have a as you stated BIG RIG look..... no. was every single body of ram 1500 more smooth body lines and more rounded then every chevy..... yes for sure, ram has always had smoother more rounded body lines

Wait! are those two different vehicles? It looks like a Silverado/Colorado pair to me.

And by "rounded edges" I meant any shape that gives it character... this new shape looks like it was drawn using the same design algorithm as EVERY other vehicle made today.

Most often people misunderstand me because my brain makes complete sense to itself and to no one else.

Such is change. I imagine someday, if we live long enough, we'll pine for the days of the SEXY Gen5 RAM! lol

I've always liked the hood bulge...The truck would look lame without it.

I'm not referring to the hood bulge, I am referring to what has now been added which is essentially a fake cowl induction looking bit. Look really close at the new shape and you'll see it.

Tapering hood and fenders, with the narrow lights--I see a Ridgeline.

Nope. A woman would never admit to that. lol


now that is very true, although if they did actually admit to it, they would repeat themselves at least a dozen times about it
